Description

  The present invention relates to a protective equipment equipped with a sensor capable of detecting a life-related danger such as heat stroke and alarming via a mesh network while ensuring safety, workability, and convenience.

  It is important for workers who work in harsh environments to manage their physical condition during work. For example, heat convulsions and heat syncope called heat stroke may lead to the danger of the worker's life on the site with dangerous work. In particular, in firefighting activities, firefighters wear and carry cylinders and various equipment in addition to protective equipment such as fireproof clothing, and work in a high-temperature environment close to a flame. Furthermore, due to the characteristics of fire protection clothing, heat tends to be trapped in the fire protection clothing, and there is a high risk that the firefighter is exposed to the risk of heat stroke. On the other hand, firefighters sometimes perform activities that exceed their physical strength due to their sense of mission. Under such circumstances, it has been demanded that firefighters detect and notify that the risk of heat stroke is high.

As a countermeasure, for example, Patent Document 1 proposes an earplug type. However, because of the earplug type, there was a problem of obstructing the hearing of firefighters. Moreover, when trying to apply this to firefighting activities, durability in a harsh environment was not sufficient.
Further, Patent Document 2 proposes a method in which information detected by a temperature sensor is sent to an external module by a communication unit, and the external module determines whether there is a risk of heat stroke. However, this method has a problem that the alarm system cannot be operated when there is a firefighter in the building or in the basement and communication cannot be secured.
Moreover, in patent document 3, the system which detects a heat stress in a fire fighting activity is proposed, However, in such a method, there existed a concern which obstruct | occluded the activity of a firefighter because of the characteristic of measuring with a head, There was a problem that the alarm system would not work if the head protection was removed.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described based on an example in which the present invention is applied to protective clothing equipped with a heat stroke alarm system.
The present invention is a protective equipment equipped with a sensor, which receives and transmits a signal transmitted from a sensor worn by another subject, and means for converting information measured by the sensor into an output signal and transmitting it.

Moreover, it can also be set as the combination of these two or more sensors. Since the symptoms of heat stroke are diverse, it is expected that the detection accuracy will be improved by combining multiple sensors.

Hereinafter, the sensor for detecting biological information will be described as a temperature sensor for detecting the inner temperature of the protective clothing, but it goes without saying that the sensor is not limited to the temperature sensor.
Moreover, the protective clothing for managers is a protective clothing provided with a heat stroke warning system, and the heat stroke warning system is an alarm transmitted from a transmission means for workers (fire fighting clothing for fire fighters). It is the protective clothing provided with the heat stroke alarm system characterized by including the receiving means which receives, an alarm means, and the control means which controls the said receiving means and the said alarm means. Such protective clothing is suitably used, for example, as protective clothing (fire protective clothing) for the captain of a fire brigade.
For example, if the firefighters and the fire brigade chief use these protective clothing equipped with a heat stroke warning system, it is possible to warn of the risk of heat stroke while ensuring safety, workability, and convenience.

Hereinafter, a heat stroke alarm system using a temperature sensor will be described with reference to the drawings (refer to drawings other than the referenced drawings as appropriate).
As shown in FIG. 1, the heat stroke warning system includes protective clothing of workers 1 a, 1 b, 1 c (1) (hereinafter simply referred to as “worker 1” unless otherwise distinguished) (subject). Abnormality detectors 2a, 2b, 2c (2) (hereinafter simply referred to as "abnormality detection device 2" unless otherwise specified), first alarm generation device 3, and operator The second alarm generation device 4 held by a manager 5 other than 1 is provided.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the abnormality detection device 2 includes a sensor (temperature sensor) 201, a CPU (processing means) 202, a wireless module 203, a memory (storage means) 204, an RTC (Real Time Clock) 205, a button 206, and a battery. 207. The first alarm generation device 3 includes a buzzer (abnormality notification unit) 301 and a CPU (processing unit) 302, and may further include a small light 303 and a small motor (abnormality notification unit) 304. Further, the CPU 202 of the abnormality detection device 2 and the CPU 303 of the alarm generation device may be the same, or a system including a plurality of first alarm generation devices 3 for one abnormality detection device 2 may be used. By including a plurality of first alarm generation devices 3, the person can notice the alarm early. The sensor (temperature sensor) 201 is a means (sensor) that measures the temperature in the clothes of the worker 1. Hereinafter, data acquired by the sensor 201 is referred to as “sensor data”. The CPU 202 performs various arithmetic processes using the memory 204. The wireless module 203 is a means for wirelessly communicating with an external device (the first alarm generation device 3 or the second alarm generation device 4). The memory 204 is a storage unit and can be realized by, for example, a RAM (Random Access Memory), a ROM (Read Only Memory), an HDD (Hard Disk Drive), or the like. The RTC 205 is a means for measuring time, and can be realized by a dedicated chip, for example, and can operate by receiving power from the built-in battery even when the battery is not working. The battery 207 is a power supply means and can be realized by, for example, a storage battery. The button 206 is an input means operated (pressed) by the worker 1. By arranging the sensor 201 and the CPU 202, which is a determination means for determining whether the information detected by the sensor 201 is equal to or greater than the threshold value, in the same unit (abnormality detection device 2), the wireless module 203 is out of order, or Even in an environment where wireless communication cannot be used, it is possible to detect and judge the danger of heat stroke and to warn the worker 1.

  Next, the first alarm generation device 3 includes a CPU 302, a buzzer 301, and a battery 306 as shown in FIG. The buzzer 301 is a warning unit that generates a buzzer sound in response to an instruction from the CPU 302. The light 303 and the small motor 304 are alarm means for generating light and vibration in response to an instruction from the CPU 302. In addition to the sound of the buzzer 301, an alarm by light or vibration is issued, so that the worker 1 can notice the alarm more quickly and reliably. The wireless module 305 is a means for wirelessly communicating with the abnormality detection device 2 and the external device (second alarm generation device 4), and includes a relay means. The battery 306 is a power supply means and can be realized by, for example, a storage battery.

  Next, the second alarm generation device 4 includes a panel computer 401, a buzzer 402, a wireless module 403, a memory device 404, an input device 405, and a battery 406, as shown in FIG. The panel computer 401 is a computer in which a processing unit 411 including a CPU, a storage unit 412 including a RAM, a ROM, an HDD, a display unit 413 that is a liquid crystal display with a touch panel, and the like are integrated. The panel type computer 401 allows the operator to perform intuitive manual operations on the display unit 413. The buzzer 402 is alarm means for generating a buzzer sound in response to an instruction from the panel type computer 401. The wireless module 403 is a means for wirelessly communicating with an external device (first alarm generation device 3). The memory device 404 is a detachable storage medium and can be realized by, for example, a flash memory. The battery 406 is power supply means and can be realized by, for example, a storage battery.

  In addition, the antennas of the wireless modules 203, 305, and 403 can be formed integrally with protective clothing using conductive fibers or the like. For example, if the antenna is formed on the outer surface of the protective clothing, even if the abnormality detecting device 2, the first alarm generating device 3, and the second alarm generating device 4 are provided inside the protective clothing, the protective clothing is obstructed. Wireless communication can be performed without any problem. For this reason, a cloth with a high electromagnetic wave absorption rate can also be used for the protective clothing. The antenna provided integrally with the protective clothing is a method of providing a conductive material by vapor deposition or printing on the protective clothing in addition to the conductive fiber, and a method of attaching an antenna prepared in advance with a flexible substrate such as a flexible substrate to the protective clothing. It can be formed by.

Next, an example of data stored in the storage unit 204 of the abnormality detection device 2 will be described. As shown in FIG. 4, the data in the storage unit is composed of five columns and will be described in order from the left.
“Worker” indicates the identifier of the worker 1. The “determination period (seconds)” is a period (seconds) in which the abnormality detection apparatus 2 periodically collects data by the temperature sensor 201 and stores it in the memory 204, and compares it with a preset threshold value. It is the period (second) which judges abnormality of the worker 1's body. For example, there are 60 seconds as a long cycle and 10 seconds as a short cycle. For example, the time when sensor data is collected at any time is the time measured by the RTC 205.

  Regarding the “internal temperature (° C.)”, the upper “recorded value” indicates the internal temperature of the worker 1 acquired by the sensor 201 at the time as biometric information. The lower “warning level” indicates the temperature that is the first threshold, and is 38 (° C.) in FIG. In addition, the threshold value of various biological information may be an absolute value or a relative value. If the relative value is used as a threshold, it is possible to cope with individual differences of the worker 1 and daily physical condition fluctuations, and to reliably detect the risk of heat stroke at an earlier stage. Moreover, you may use a relative threshold value and an absolute threshold value together about one determination item (for example, body temperature). In addition, the determination of whether each item is abnormal may be performed on the data change rate (change amount per unit time) in addition to the data change amount as described above.

Next, an example of a screen displayed on the display unit 413 of the second alarm generation device 4 will be described. As shown in FIG. 5, in the display unit 413, information for identifying the worker is displayed in the leftmost column as an administrator screen, and in the right column there are items of time, clothing temperature, and determination items. Is displayed.
Next, the process flow of the heat stroke alarm system will be described. Note that although there may actually be a plurality of abnormality detection devices 2, here, it is assumed that there is only one for simplicity of explanation. As shown in FIG. 3 (refer to other figures as appropriate), first, when the power is turned on by the operator 1 (step S1), the abnormality detection device 2 is used as a steady value by using the sensor 201 in a normal state before work. The sensor data is measured and stored in the memory 204 (step S2). Thereafter, the worker 1 starts work. Next, the CPU 202 of the abnormality detection device 2 serving as a determination unit determines whether or not the determination timing has arrived based on the determination cycle (step S3), and if it has arrived (Yes), proceeds to step S4.

  In step S <b> 4, the CPU 202 of the abnormality detection device 2 collects sensor data and stores it in the memory 204. At this time, the voltage of the battery 207 and the communication state with the first alarm generation device 3 or the second alarm generation device 4 may be checked. Next, the CPU of the abnormality detection device 2 that is the determination means determines whether or not the alarm level is equal to or higher than the alarm level based on the sensor data collected in the immediately preceding step S4 (the item of “determination” is “abnormal (alarm)”. Whether or not there is) is determined (step S5). If Yes, the process proceeds to step S6, and if No, the process returns to step S3. In step S6, the CPU 202 of the abnormality detection apparatus 2 notifies the first alarm generation apparatus 3 of the alarm content (see FIG. 3).

  When the first alarm generation device 3 receives the alarm content from the abnormality detection device 2, the first alarm generation device 3 operates the alarm means. Specifically, for example, the buzzer 301 is sounded to notify one worker of an abnormality. At this time, the small motor 304 may be operated to generate vibration. The worker 1 can immediately recognize the occurrence of an abnormality even in a work environment where the noise is large and the sound of the buzzer 301 is difficult to hear due to the vibration of the small motor 304. Thus, according to the heat stroke alarm system of the present embodiment, the abnormality detection device 2 reliably detects the danger of heat stroke of the worker 1, and the buzzer which is a warning means in the first alarm generation device 3. By notifying one worker by sound generated by 301, vibration by the small motor 304, or the like, it is possible to reliably cope with an abnormality of the worker 1 body. The operator himself / herself has at least one abnormality detection device 2 and first alarm generation device 3. Alternatively, it is desirable that the CPU of the abnormality detection device 2 and the CPU of the first alarm generation device 3 are the same, that is, wireless communication cannot be performed between the first alarm generation device 3 and the second alarm generation device 4. Even in the situation, it is possible to reliably detect an abnormality in the body of the worker 1 and notify the worker of the abnormality.

  Thus, according to the heat stroke alarm system of the present embodiment, it is possible to reliably detect abnormalities in the body such as the heat stroke of the worker 1, and the sound from the buzzer 301, the light from the light 303, the vibration from the small motor 304, etc. Thus, the abnormality of the worker 1 can be surely dealt with by notifying the operator of the abnormality. That is, even in a situation where wireless communication cannot be performed between the first alarm generation device 3 and the second alarm generation device 4, an abnormality in the body of the worker 1 is reliably detected, and the abnormality is reported to one worker. You can be notified.

Further, in addition to notifying the operator of the abnormality, the abnormality detection device 2 wirelessly transmits a notification of the abnormality (alarm content, warning content) to the remote second alarm generation device 4, thereby enabling the administrator 5 Can grasp the abnormality from the display of the second alarm generating device 4 and take an appropriate action.
Further, the threshold value for determining the abnormality of each item is not based on the numerical value common to all the workers 1 but based on the biological information (steady value) of the worker 1 when the power of the abnormality detection device 2 is turned on. By calculating the above, it is possible to reliably detect the risk of heat stroke at an earlier stage and to reduce false alarms.

  Further, the abnormality detection device 2 reduces the consumption of the battery 207 by transmitting a wireless signal only when it is determined that there is an abnormality in the body of the worker 1 except for periodic transmission of sensor data. Can do. Furthermore, for example, the sensor that acquires the biological information of the worker 1 is not only an in-clothes temperature sensor, but also any of biological information or ambient environment information such as a heart rate sensor, a temperature sensor, a humidity sensor, an acceleration sensor, a sweat sensor, and a blood pressure sensor. Or a combination of two or more thereof. Moreover, those sensors do not necessarily have to be integrated into the inside of the abnormality detection device 2, and only need to be configured so that predetermined biological information can be sent to the abnormality detection device 2.

Also, if the abnormality detection device 2 determines that the body of the worker 1 is abnormal, then if the worker 1 presses the button 206 within a predetermined time, an abnormality signal is not transmitted to the second alarm generation device 4 (cancel You may do it. However, such cancellation is not appropriate when there is an abnormality in the body of the worker 1, and such cancellation can be performed only when the body of the worker 1 is not necessarily abnormal. It is preferable to set as follows.
Also, what value the warning level is set to is not limited to the present embodiment, and can be appropriately set by the administrator 5 based on statistical data or the like. Further, the threshold value may be any one of a warning level and an alarm level.

  As described above, the embodiment has been described by taking the heat stroke alarm system as an example. However, the alarm system is not limited to the heat stroke alarm, and can be applied to scenes and people that warn various dangers. Moreover, the protective equipment provided with the alarm system is not limited to protective clothing, but may be a helmet, gloves, boots, a watch, a honeybee, or the like.

  Furthermore, the alarm system according to the present invention can be connected to a server or the like at a remote location via a network, and can accumulate and utilize information. FIG. 7 shows a system in which a second alarm generation device 4 held by an administrator 5 is connected to a server 8 installed at a remote location via a wireless communication with a base station 6 and a network 7 such as the Internet. FIG. In FIG. 7, the biological information, position information, and the like of the workers 1 a and 1 b are acquired by various sensors provided in each abnormality detection device 2, and the server 8 is connected via the second alarm generation device 4 of the administrator 5. In addition to this, a system in which the first alarm generation device 3 of the workers 1a and 1b is connected to the server 8 via the wireless communication with the base station 6 and the network 7 is also possible. .

For example, the server 8 measures biological information such as the body temperature, heart rate, blood pressure, and respiration rate of the workers 1a and 1b from the sensor of the abnormality detection device 2 on a daily or regular basis, calculates an average value in daily life, On the other hand, by determining the threshold value for determining that there is an abnormality for each worker 1, it is possible to cope with each worker 1.
Further, if the biological information is acquired on a daily or regular basis by the server 8, it becomes easy to notice a change in the physical condition of the worker 1. For example, if the alarm system according to the present invention is applied to a uniform such as a bus or taxi driver who saves many lives, an abnormality of the driver can be detected early and countermeasures can be taken.
The normal biological information of the worker 1 stored in the server 8 is not limited to that obtained from the sensor of the abnormality detection device 2, but can be used by inputting external information such as a periodic medical examination. The threshold value of the biological information of each worker 1 may be determined from this information.

Further, if the biological information and position information of the worker 1 are managed by the server 8, for example, the server 8 installed in the fire department grasps the position and working environment of each fire brigade member who is working, and the danger is predicted. It is possible to notify the fire brigade chief who is the manager 5 from the fire department that there is a fire brigade member having an abnormality in the biometric information, etc., and the burden on the fire brigade chief can be reduced.
Furthermore, by accumulating position information (including altitude information) and biological information data in the server 8, it is possible to investigate and analyze the action trajectory and physical condition of each worker 1 during the work. For example, firefighters, self-defense forces, military, rescue teams, police officers, security guards, workers at construction sites such as construction and civil engineering, etc., are considering to improve safety, work efficiency, etc. in future activities, It can be applied as a material for training and education.

In addition, the biological information, position information, and the like of the worker 1 may be displayed in the field of view such as the glasses or goggles of the person or others. In addition, each sensor and the battery that serves as the power source for the sensor has a self-diagnosis function, and automatically diagnoses and confirms whether it operates normally on a daily basis or immediately before performing work. A calibration function can be provided. If the results of the self-diagnosis are transmitted to the server 8 and stored, centralized management can be performed as maintenance plan data. Moreover, the wearer can be notified of the presence or absence of abnormality by the alarm generator 3, the alarm generator 4, etc., and the use can be stopped.
Specific configurations such as hardware and flowcharts of the alarm system can be changed as appropriate without departing from the object of the present invention.

  Next, each component will be described. The temperature sensor that detects the inner temperature of the protective clothing desirably has a measurement accuracy of 0.1 ° C. Thereby, the danger of heat stroke can be detected with high accuracy. A thermocouple or a Peltier element can be used as the sensor. The temperature sensor is preferably disposed on the skin side surface of the interlayer or innermost layer of the multilayer structure fabric. By placing a temperature sensor near the living body, it is possible to detect the thermal environment that causes the risk of heat stroke. About means other than a temperature sensor, it is not necessary to arrange | position to the skin side surface of the interlayer of the multilayer structure fabric, or the innermost layer, and may be arrange | positioned on the outer side of the outermost layer. However, in that case, it is desirable that appropriate waterproof hand treatment is applied to these means.

The sensor, alarm means, transmission means, or reception means may be a rectangular parallelepiped or a conical solid, or may be configured in a flexible form. Examples of flexible forms include plate, fiber, and gel. By configuring with a material having higher flexibility, it is possible to reduce restrictions on the activities of the worker.
As equipment for providing these temperature sensors, alarm means, transmission means or reception means, clothes made of a multilayered fabric are preferably used. Clothes are always worn during work, and are suitable for constant monitoring. Unlike helmets and earphones, clothes are unlikely to hinder the work and movement of workers. However, it goes without saying that this does not exclude the wearing of helmets, earphones, etc., and by installing these sensors, alarm means, transmission means, or reception means at multiple points, the overall weight of the equipment, workability There is a possibility that it will lead to improvement.

In addition, by making the fabric a multilayer structure, various functions that are difficult with a single-layer fabric can be simultaneously imparted to the clothes. Examples of functions include flame retardancy, heat shielding properties, water repellency, chemical permeability, cutability, and abrasion.
As such a multilayer structure fabric, for example, those described in JP-A No. 2014-091307 and JP-A No. 2011-106069 are preferable. That is, it is as follows.
The multilayer structure fabric is a laminated fabric composed of two or more layers of an outer layer and an inner layer. In the multilayer structure fabric, in order to protect the temperature sensor arranged on the skin side surface of the interlayer structure or the innermost layer of the multilayer structure fabric, a fiber material having high flame retardancy is preferable. For example, the limiting oxygen index (LOI) of the fibers constituting the multilayered fabric is 21 or more, preferably 24 or more. The critical oxygen index is the oxygen concentration (%) of the atmosphere necessary to continue combustion, and if it is 21 or more, it means that the combustion does not continue in normal air and self-extinguishes, and has high heat resistance. It can be demonstrated. Here, the limiting oxygen index (LOI) is a value measured according to JIS L1091 (Method E).

  Thus, high heat resistance can be exhibited by using the fiber whose outermost layer has a limiting oxygen index (LOI) of 21 or more. Examples of the fiber include meta-type aramid fiber, para-type aramid fiber, polybenzimidazole fiber, polyimide fiber, polyamideimide fiber, polyetherimide fiber, polyarylate fiber, polyparaphenylenebenzobisoxazole fiber, novoloid fiber, and polyclar. Examples thereof include fibers, flame retardant acrylic fibers, flame retardant rayon fibers, flame retardant polyester fibers, flame retardant cotton fibers, and flame retardant wool fibers. In particular, meta-aramid fibers such as polymetaphenylene isophthalamide, para-aramid fibers for the purpose of improving the strength of woven fabrics and knitted fabrics, that is, polyparaphenylene terephthalamide, or fibers obtained by copolymerizing this with a third component Etc. are useful. As an example of the polyparaphenylene terephthalamide copolymer, copolyparaphenylene 3.4'-oxydiphenylene terephthalamide is exemplified. However, easy-twisting materials such as polyester fiber, polyamide fiber, nylon fiber, and acrylic fiber may be mixed within a range that does not impair flame retardancy. Further, the fiber may be an original fiber or a post-dyed fiber. Moreover, you may give a flame-retardant process after weaving a fabric as needed.

Long fibers or short fibers may be used as the fibers described above. Further, two or more kinds of the above fibers may be mixed or spun.
In particular, as the fabric used for the outer layer, in the present invention, the meta-aramid fiber and the para-aramid fiber are preferably used in the form of a filament or a mixed spun yarn. The spun yarn used may be single ply or double ply. The mixing ratio of the para-based aramid fibers is preferably 5% by weight or more based on the total fibers constituting the fabric. However, since the para-based aramid fibers are easily fibrillated, the mixing ratio is 60% by weight or less. It is preferable to suppress to.
The fabric may be used in the form of a woven fabric, a knitted fabric, a non-woven fabric or the like, but a woven fabric is particularly preferable. The woven fabric may be any woven structure such as plain weave, twill weave, and satin weave. Moreover, in the woven fabric and the knitted fabric, two types of fibers may be used, and weaving and knitting may be performed.

The fabric used for the outermost layer (surface layer) preferably has a basis weight of 140 to 500 g / m ² , more preferably 160 to 400 g / m ² , and still more preferably 200 to 400 g / m ^2. It is preferable to use it. If the basis weight is less than 140 g / m ² , sufficient heat resistance may not be obtained. On the other hand, if the basis weight exceeds 500 g / m ² , there is a feeling of wearing when it is used as a thermal insulation activity clothing. May be disturbed.
In the multilayer structure fabric, the inner layer has a tensile modulus of 80 to 800 cN / dtex, and the thermal conductivity of the fabric is 6.0 W · m−1 · k−1 or less, preferably 5.0 W · m−1 · k. -1 or less and a specific gravity of 3.0 g / cm ³ or less, a fabric composed of fibers having a wavelength of 800 to 3000 nm, a transmittance of 10% or less, and a basis weight of 60 to 500 g / m ^2. It is preferable that

The tensile modulus of the fiber is preferably 80 to 800 cN / dtex (more preferably 80 to 460 cN / dtex, still more preferably 120 to 500 cN / dtex). When the tensile elastic modulus is less than 80 cN / dtex, when used as a heat-shielding activity clothing, etc., depending on the movement and posture of the wearer, the fibers may be stretched in some parts, the fabric becomes thin, and a sufficient heat-shielding effect is obtained. It may not be obtained. Moreover, when a tensile elasticity modulus exceeds 800 cN / dtex, what is called a "stretching" wearing feeling may be given. Although it may be possible to avoid this by using spun yarn, it is preferable that the tensile elastic modulus is 800 cN / dtex or less in order to exhibit a sufficient effect.
In the multilayer structure fabric, the fabric weight is preferably 60 to 500 g / m ² (more preferably 80 to 400 g / m ² , still more preferably 100 to 350 g / m ² ). If the basis weight is lower than 60 g / m ² , transmission of electromagnetic waves may not be sufficiently prevented. On the other hand, if the basis weight is higher than 500 g / m ² , the tendency to accumulate heat becomes remarkable, which may impair the heat shielding property, and the lightness may be impaired.

  There is no particular limitation on the fibers constituting the above-mentioned multilayer structure fabric. In order to improve the absorption and reflection of electromagnetic waves, it is also possible to use a material kneaded with metal or carbon or attached to the surface.

For example, it is conceivable that the fabric thickness increases under exposure to flame. In this way, the fabric structure is thin and comfortable at steady state and can suppress the risk of heat stroke. On the other hand, when it is exposed to flame, the flame protection is enhanced, so it has high safety against both heat stroke and flame. Can be secured.

  Moreover, it is preferable that HTI24 is 13 second or more, as the heat-shielding property of the fabric which comprises a protective clothing is measured by the method prescribed | regulated to ISO9151.

The weight of the intermediate layer used is preferably in the range of 50 to 200 g / m ² . When the basis weight is less than 50 g / m ² , sufficient heat shielding performance may not be obtained. On the other hand, when the basis weight exceeds 200 g / m ² , there is a feeling of wearing when the heat shielding activity clothes are used. May be disturbed. This fabric is preferably laminated with a thin film made of moisture-permeable and water-resistant polytetrafluoroethylene or the like, which improves moisture-permeable and chemical resistance, and prevents sweating of the wearer. It can be promoted and the heat stress of the wearer can be reduced. The basis weight per unit area of the thin film laminated to the intermediate layer is preferably in the range of 10 to 50 g / m ² . Even when the thin film is laminated on the fabric of the intermediate layer as described above, the fabric weight of the fabric of the intermediate layer subjected to the processing is preferably in the range of 50 to 200 g / m ² described above.
